Known for his creativity, passion, and love for Negronis, he\u2019s built a career on curiosity, connection, and pushing boundaries. Representing Hong Kong at the Campari Red Hands global final, Patrick shared not just a cocktail, but a piece of his story.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A little bit about me<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hi I&#8217;m Patrick, I\u2019m a mix of Filipino and Hongkongese, <\/strong>and I\u2019ve been in the hospitality industry for eight years now. Honestly, it all started because I thought bartending looked incredibly cool, and after all this time, I still think it\u2019s the coolest job in the world. What began as curiosity has become my craft and passion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What I love most about this job is the freedom to experiment and be creative. <\/strong>Whether it\u2019s developing a new drink, collaborating with other talented bartenders, or just connecting with guests from all walks of life, it all brings me joy. There\u2019s always something new to explore behind the bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;What I love most about this job is the freedom to experiment and be creative. Whether it\u2019s developing a new drink, collaborating with other talented bartenders, or just connecting with guests from all walks of life, it all brings me joy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What makes me happy, <\/strong>both at work and outside of it, is seeing people truly enjoy what I\u2019ve made. That moment when someone takes a sip, smiles, and says \u201cwow\u201d that\u2019s it for me. It\u2019s simple, but it means everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What drives me is doing something I genuinely love and feeling proud of it. <\/strong>When I\u2019m passionate about something, it lights a fire in me to keep improving. I want to grow, evolve, and keep finding new ways to express myself through this craft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, (max-width: 1024px) 90vw, (max-width: 1440px) 80vw, 700px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/d0b09a7a-15af-4738-8024-ac6951bdde93-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2347\" style=\"width:1076px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/d0b09a7a-15af-4738-8024-ac6951bdde93-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/d0b09a7a-15af-4738-8024-ac6951bdde93-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/d0b09a7a-15af-4738-8024-ac6951bdde93-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/d0b09a7a-15af-4738-8024-ac6951bdde93-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/d0b09a7a-15af-4738-8024-ac6951bdde93-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/d0b09a7a-15af-4738-8024-ac6951bdde93-720x540.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/d0b09a7a-15af-4738-8024-ac6951bdde93.jpg 1600w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How I approach my work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>One of the most helpful pieces of advice I\u2019ve ever received<\/strong> is: \u201cBelieve in yourself and trust your intuition.\u201d It sounds simple, but in a fast-paced industry like this, it\u2019s easy to second-guess yourself. That advice reminds me to stay grounded and confident in my instincts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To feel like I\u2019m growing professionally, <\/strong>I need to keep tasting, experimenting, and learning. I try to build my mental flavor library every day, trying new drinks, memorizing flavor profiles, asking questions. It\u2019s all about staying curious and constantly sharpening my skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What motivates me at work is trust. <\/strong>When my employers believe in me and let me take on new challenges, it makes me want to rise to the occasion. Having that freedom and responsibility pushes me to keep giving my best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Brands play such a crucial role in this industry. <\/strong>They don\u2019t just provide products, they create platforms, opportunities, and moments that bring bartenders together. From guest shifts to events and collaborations, their support helps us all grow as a community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"755\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, (max-width: 1024px) 90vw, (max-width: 1440px) 80vw, 700px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-13-at-15.28.41-1024x755.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2348\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:1080px;height:600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-13-at-15.28.41-1024x755.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-13-at-15.28.41-300x221.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-13-at-15.28.41-768x566.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-13-at-15.28.41.jpg 1089w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My experience in Campari Red Hands 2024<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Representing Hong Kong on the Campari Red Hands stage was absolutely surreal.<\/strong> Sometimes I still can\u2019t believe it actually happened! Being part of something so global and meaningful made me feel deeply proud of where I come from and what I represent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Milan had this energy that was just infectious.<\/strong> The people, the vibe, the history, it all came together and lifted me up throughout the finals. Being surrounded by so much beauty and positivity gave me the boost I needed to stay focused and perform with heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The biggest challenge during the competition? Time. <\/strong>It always felt like it was slipping away faster than I wanted. But I stayed focused, planned carefully, and made sure every second counted. Staying calm and present was key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>My competition cocktail was inspired by my love for the Negroni. <\/strong>It\u2019s often seen as a \u201cgentleman\u2019s drink,\u201d but I wanted to break that mold and create something more inclusive. That\u2019s how <em>Lily<\/em> was born, a drink that\u2019s elegant, balanced, and for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To bring a bit of Hong Kong into my final presentation, <\/strong>I leaned into the city\u2019s diversity. It\u2019s such a beautiful mix of cultures and flavors, and I wanted to reflect that in my cocktail by using ingredients that nod to the local palate. It\u2019s my way of showing where I come from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;Bartending isn\u2019t just about the drinks, it\u2019s about sharing your story. Your personality, your journey, your unique flavor as a person, it all matters just as much as what\u2019s in the glass.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What I learned from the other finalists<\/strong> is that bartending isn\u2019t just about the drinks, it\u2019s about sharing your story. Your personality, your journey, your unique flavor as a person, it all matters just as much as what\u2019s in the glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Looking back, I\u2019m most proud of <em>Lily<\/em><\/strong>, and the fact that I got to share her with the world. Creating that cocktail and presenting it on such a big stage felt like a full-circle moment for me. It was a celebration of everything I love about bartending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If I could give advice to next year\u2019s finalists,<\/strong> it would be this: focus on balance first, innovation second. You don\u2019t have to make something wild or complicated, just something real. Let your personality shine through and don\u2019t be afraid to keep it simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>This competition changed how I see myself as a bartender.<\/strong> Before, it was just a job, something I did. Now, I feel like it\u2019s truly a part of who I am. It\u2019s how I express myself, connect with others, and make a little magic every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s next?<\/strong> I\u2019d love to keep collaborating with the Red Hands community and spreading the Campari love to more places around the world. I\u2019m excited for what\u2019s to come, so stay tuned!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With eight years behind the bar, John Patrick Poon brings a vibrant blend of Hong Kong and Filipino flair to the world of bartending.
